As a side note, my mainboard has an additional onboard IDE controller (HPT366)
with the controller ROM integrated into the BIOS instead of a SCSI ROM.
The setting is called EXT instead of SCSI (don't ask me why they called it "EXT" if its onboard).
And the Linux driver seems to be broken, my system will freeze if I enable DMA
on a drive attached to that chip. *sigh*
